·With coaxing, scents of dark red stone fruits,
herbs, wildflowers and sawn oak emerge. A little more restrained than the 2004
vintage, displaying dark-hued fruits that are nicely spiced and oaked. All silk
and satin. A subtle green note should resolve with further time in the bottle.
This one will only get better with some aging.Reviewed November 2, 2008
